RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

My eyes combed every page of R/C Car Action Magazine. Devouring each word with voracious enthusiasm. I stood ambitiously in front of the glass counter of our local hobby shop gazing up at all the new racing machines, knowing with absolute certainty, the specification of every one. I am 12. Nine lett...

I wanted to create a directory of R/C car shops for RC10talk members to enjoy, so I spent a couple days hunting down every hobby level R/C shop in the United States.

Thank you!

Toy town and Tammies Hobbies added.... you tore through the list fast! Never knew about Tammies Hobbies or how long they'd been around... that's probably the coolest part of the directory is learning about shops you didn't know existed.

Duplicates removed (thanks for catching 'em) Reckless Hobbies added.... Love the name of the fast food joint next to them.... Burgersville... lol.

That's a metaphor for life right there... or at the very least a really good bumper sticker.

The orange and blue reminds me of the later G.I. Joes that were done up in those colors... total flashback...

But the pink buggy is hot...

That's nice work ya'll are doing!

So, I'm reading this article the other day about the future of R/C charging. A company was touting their technology which allowed over the air charging of cars while they were running, with a tagline like, "Never charge your R/C car again!". And it got me to thinking... is the R/C industry...

So, Nascar racing then.

Because sometimes... lightening your chassis just isn't enough...

Oh sure... SOMEONE just had to go and scare up seven extra entrants...

Last I checked there were only two! ...I coulda' been a contender!!!
